        1. Go to <insert distro>.com
        2. Download iso
        3. burn iso to usb stick (ventoy!)
        4. install on pc
        5. install ublock origin on firefox
        6. done

        also get a dumb tv ofc

        edit: despite what people will say, ubuntu is still a rock solid distro. Alternatively, tumbleweed is brilliant too.

          You don’t need a dumb TV, just switch the input. If your TV shows ads when connected to other inputs, yeet that TV out of your house today.

            Disconnect it from your network. Hard to serve ads if it can’t contact the servers it is pulling them from.

        Set up a mini PC like a used Lenovo ThinkCentre, install Linux, and add a keyboard with trackpad. Run Jellyfin and Piped on your homelab, then ‘obtain’ media for your Jellyfin-Instance. Enjoy TV without distractions or tracking!
